New location

We are up and running in our new location at the corner of Cherry Blossom Road and Fountain Street in Cambridge. Our new kitchen is everything we've been looking for, and our building came with a beautiful storefront that we are putting to use.



Stop by the Hungry Olive Monday to Friday from 7-2 for house-baked pastries, coffee by the Waterloo Coffee Company, grilled to order paninis, soup of the day, and deli sandwiches.

We’re moving!

Select Service is moving our operation to a new building starting in February.  After almost 10 years on Park Street in Kitchener, we’re getting ready to say goodbye and move on to a purpose-built facility.  We will remain at 109 Park Street until the end of this month, then we’ll take a few days to ourselves to get everything unpacked and organized.  We’ll be back on line on February 8 at our new location at 35 Cherry Blossom Road, Unit 3, in Cambridge.

We’re also excited about a new venture for us – Select Service is opening a take out lunch shop called the Hungry Olive at our new location.  Stop in and grab your freshly grilled panini to go, or pick up an oven-ready meal to take home for dinner.

Our contact information will remain the same, you can still reach us at 519-745-4597 or by email at info@selectservice.ca

Corporate Holiday party at the Kitchener City Hall Rotunda

On December 11, we catered an annual corporate holiday party held at the Kitchener City Hall Rotunda. There were 130 guests, and the menu featured four station buffets. Breaking up the buffet cuts down on lines, and allows guests to wander around to the stations they are interested in. The beautiful linens were supplied by Posh Rentals.



View of the 17 round tables from above the Rotunda

The Steakhouse Carving station featuring ribeye and carved turkey with all the trimming


Kelvin and Neil set up the pasta stations. Three kinds of pasta and sauces were sauteed to order with a variety of add-ins to customize your dish.

The seafood station. Glass blocks frame the display for jumbo shrimp with dipping sauces

Sushi and maki were provided by Sakura Island in Waterloo


Mussels steamed to order and fresh oysters complete this chef-attended buffet station.


Select's signature chop salad buffet station. Crisp lettuce is chopped in front of you with tomato, cucumber and bacon bits, then tossed with a creamy dressing.

50th Birthday Island Cake

This is some kind of birthday present, a private island. What a lucky lady Deb.
This is a picture of the cake with the printed pictures of the island. The cake was made to resemble the island as much as possible with the recipient of the gift (Deb) fly fishing in the water.

The cake is not to scale but it is a good representation of what this lucky lady will be seeing when she gets to her private island.
